Definitions

  • This invention relates to an improved locking system for containers, in particular, for storage containers.
  • Storage containers referred to in the present specification are generally large, walk in boxes similar in size to semi-trailer trucks.
  • the containers can be stacked and shipped by rail and by ship easily.
  • such containers are used as storage devices by end users.
  • U.S. Patent No. 5,029,909 entitled “Door Lock Assembly” which issued on July 9, 1991 owned by assignee of the present invention discloses a protective device for locking the doors of a storage container using a two bar configuration.
  • U.S. Patent No. 5,261, 258 entitled “Padlock Protector” which issued on November 16, 1993 owned by assignee of the present invention discloses a security device, which consists of an exterior mounted housing for a latch bar, which defines a recess. The recess provides access to an aperture in the bar by a circular shackle of a disk shaped padlock.
  • This device operates in much the same fashion as the present invention. However, it is also believed to be less effective because of its exterior mounting and structure allows some access to the locking mechanism and the shaft by drills and hammer devices.
  • U. S. Patent No. 5,509,700 entitled “Latch and Lock for Trailer Doors” which issued on April 23, 1996 to Kennedy, Jr., and owned by assignee of the present invention discloses a concealed latch with an arm attached to a pivot operatively connected to a pair of locking bars.
  • the devices of the prior art described above are not completely satisfactory. For example, such devices often require a great deal of effort to close and latch. In one system, the user is required to bend over and operate the lever system in a particular sequence. In addition, the devices are often difficult to operate if the container is not level. Further, these devices often provide only one locking mechanism making it possible, once the locking system has been circumvented, for thieves and other criminals to gain entry to the storage container.
  • Figs. 1-11 disclose one embodiment of an improved locking system 10 mounted to one door 11 of a cargo storing container 13 or other door assembly and the floor thereof.
  • Door 11 and its companion door 12 overlap and open outwardly with door 12 being closed first and door 11 being closed thereafter.
  • the operation of such doors 11 and 12 are well known to those of ordinary skill in the art and will not be further discussed herein. Note that some doors 11 and 12 do not overlap. In that event, tabs must be added to door 12 to create an appropriate overlap for locking system 10 to function properly.
  • locking system 10 operatively engages a top rod 14 extending upwardly therefrom, a bottom rod 15 extending downwardly therefrom and a side lock rod end 16.
  • Rods 14 and 15 and lock rod end 16 are mounted on the interior side of door 11.
  • Rod 14 engages the upper lock rod end 17 and rod 15 engages the lower lock rod end 18.
  • Lock rod ends 16, 17 and 18 have a locked position illustrated in Fig. 3 wherein the lock rod ends extend just beyond the periphery of door 11 to engage the interior side of door 12, a ceiling 19 and a floor 20, respectively, and an unlocked position illustrated in Fig. 4 wherein the lock rod ends 16, 17 and 18 do not extend beyond the periphery of door 11.
  • Locking system 10 slides rods 14 and 15 and lock rod end 16 between the two positions as desired. To open system 10, lock rod ends 16, 17 and 18 must be disengaged.
  • Lock rod ends 16, 17 and 18 preferably engage a side lock rod guide 21, a ceiling lock rod guide 22 and a floor lock rod guide 23.
  • each lock rod end 16, 17 and 18 include a sloped edge 24, 25 and 26, respectively, which facilitate alignment of each lock rod end with a respective lock rod guide 21, 22, 23.
  • lock rod ends 16, 17 and 18 are doubled in thickness at the distal end thereof. The extra thickness provides further security by strengthening an inherent access point where lock rod ends 16, 17 and 18 cross the periphery of door 11, i.e. where thieves often employ cutting tools.
  • the rods are comprised of solid square steel bar and the lock rod ends are cast as a single piece or may be manufactured by welding two square bars together.
  • locking system 10 includes a box like housing 27 having a front panel 28.
  • Front panel 28 includes an integral flange 29 extending outwardly from housing 27, which provides for mounting said housing on an opening in door 11.
  • Housing 27 and integral flange 29 are, preferably, made from heavy gauge metal.
  • locking system 10 is secured to door 11 by bolts extending through flange 29 which are secured to door 11 by nuts which are, most preferably, welded to the bolts for security.
  • a handle 30 rotatably engages an axle 31 extending through front panel 28.
  • One feature of the present invention is to utilize a relatively short handle 30 to minimize the prying leverage available to a potential thief.
  • locking system 10 is positioned on door 11 whereby handle 30 is at a height convenient for users in a normal standing position.
  • the direction of rotation of handle 30 to close door 11 is, preferably, a downward motion.
  • a downward motion affords a user the ability to bear down on handle 30 with their entire body weight to assure engagement of lock rod ends 16, 17 and 18.
  • the lock rods 14 and 15 and the lock rod ends 16, 17 and 18 are designed and weighted to fall to the open position thereby preventing doors 11 and 12 from accidentally locking a person inside, and further allowing operation of same with a minimum of force.
  • axle 31 operatively engages a lower cam plate 32 mounted within housing 27, which extends laterally therefrom.
  • lower cam plate 32 is trapezoidal though those skilled in the art will recognize that the particular shape is not important.
  • the lower cam plate 32 engages cam link 33.
  • Cam link 33 engages upper cam plate 34. This establishes an operative link between handle 30, axle 31, lower cam plate 32, cam link 33 and upper cam plate 34.
  • a side rod link 37 and bottom rod link 38 are mounted, preferably by bushing 39.
  • a top rod-locking link 41 is mounted, preferably by bushing 39. The use of rod links 37, 38 and 41 permits the user to adjust the length of the rod/link combination to compensate for dimensional variations in storage containers.
  • lower cam plate 32 includes an anti-torque spacer 42 which maintains lower cam plate 32 in parallel alignment to housing 27 even if excessive force is applied to lower cam plate 32 via axle 31 and handle 30.
  • Anti-torque spacer 42 also restricts the entry of outside elements into housing 27.
  • rod links 37 and 38 and rod-locking link 41 extend through openings 43 in sidewalls 44 of housing 27.
  • rod links 37 and 38 and rod-locking link 41 are all comprised of steel flat bar and are joined via welding to lock rods 14 and 15 and lock rod end 16. Those skilled in the art will recognize the suitability of other materials for the use described herein.
  • Fig. 6 locking system 10 is shown in the locked position.
  • a user rotates handle 30, and hence lower cam plate 32, via axle 31, which rotates upper cam plate 34 via cam link 33, counter clockwise as shown by arrow 45 wherein rod links 37 and 38 and rod-locking link 41 are pulled inwardly into housing 27 as shown by arrows 46 thereby retracting lock rods 14 and 15 and lock rod end 16 to the unlocked position.
  • a further advantage of locking system 10 is that retraction of rod links 37 and 38 and rod-locking link 41 into housing 27 affords installation of locking system 10 onto doors 11 and 12 through the opening, which is cut into the front of door 11. Such a construction assists in installation since housing 27 is a one-piece installation.
  • Extending forwardly from lower cam plate 32 is a single piece, thick locking tab 47 having a lock hole 48 extending therethrough.
  • Tab 47 extends through an arcuate gap 49 into a recess 50 extending inwardly from front plate 28 to center plate 51 parallel to front plate 28.
  • Tab 47 passes through a slot in lower cam plate 32 and is welded to the back of lower cam plate 32.
  • the ends of arcuate gap 49 provide stops, which limit the travel of tab 47, and hence cam plates 32 and 34, thereby providing the end points for the locked and unlocked positions.
  • a secondary lock tab 52 extends forwardly from rod-locking link 41 having a lock hole 53 extending therethrough.
  • Lock tab 52 extends through a slot 56 in center plate 51 into a recess 57 extending inwardly from front plate 28 to center plate 51 and is welded to the face of rod-locking link 41.
  • a stationary lock tab 54, having a lock hole 55 extending therethrough is welded to the face of center plate 51 in recess 57 where lock hole 55 is aligned with lock hole 53 in lock tab 52 with locking system 10 in the locked position.
  • a circular lock 58 engages lock hole 48.
  • Recess 50 is adapted to engage circular lock 58 and thereby prevent movement of tab 47, and hence lower cam plate 32 and upper cam plate 34, when circular lock 58 in engaged with tab 47.
  • the entire body of circular lock 58 and recess 50 act to prevent movement from the locked position to the unlocked position until circular lock 58 is removed.
  • movement of lower cam plate 32 and upper cam plate 34 and lock rod ends 16, 17 and 18 are not solely dependent upon the structural integrity of tab 47.
  • a padlock 59 engages lock hole 53 and lock hole 55 in tabs 52 and 54, respectively, preventing movement of rod-locking link 41, and hence lower cam plate 32 and upper cam plate 34, preventing movement from the locked position to the unlocked position while padlock 59 is engaged.
  • Recess 57 is partially covered by lock pocket cover 60 and lock pocket cap 61 preventing access to tabs 52 and 54 and padlock 59.
  • Recess 50, lock pocket cover 60 and lock pocket cap 61 also provide weather protection for locking system 10.
  • locking system 10 may alternately be made utilizing an elongated cover plate 62 and back plate 63 to create a recess 64.
  • Handle 30 is replaced with a longer handle 65, which is mounted to the lower cam plate 32, and extends into recess 64.
  • Guard plate 66 allows the handle to be operated and prohibits access to the locking systems inner workings by potential thieves.
  • the present invention can be used in construction of new storage containers but also can be provided in a kit form for use in retrofitting existing storage containers.
